WHEREAS, the Village of Orland Park desires to promote the redevelopment, substantial rehabilitation and expansion of commercial industry in the Village of Orland Park; and

WHEREAS, Brandon Esparza, owner of ONE UP SIGNS, has proven the need for the granting of the Class 8 tax incentive to this Board, and that such incentive provided for in said ordinance is necessary for re-occupancy of the space and reinvestment in said property to increase value and without this reinvestment the area would continue to decline and remain vacant and blighted.
